I'm sorry about your efforts, and sorry for not having had time to
comment earlier, but this driver will be removed and replaced by
a pin control driver by Neil Armstrong:

As you can see it arrived some weeks before.

Can you please review Neils patch and make sure it satisfies
your usecases?

The reason we have to make a pin control driver are things you
can see by the quirky things for line driving or biasing etc
that you have to add if it stays in GPIO: pin control is made
to handle this kind of stuff in a generic way.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
